UK Households waste 25% of all the food they buy.
That is an estimated 20 million tonnes of food wasted in Britain each year. That is food from the plough, off the plate and into the bin.
What are do at Union Market
Our aim is to reduce, reuse and recycle.
Food Waste
Our onsite kitchen ensures that we have virtually zero food wastage.
When a product is nearing its use by date our team of expert chefs are there ready to cook up these into a variety of delicious dishes that are either displayed in our Union Market Kitchen Counter or on our Restaurant Menu.
Packaging
All our own packaging is recyclable, compostable or biodegradable and made from recycled materials, where possible.
We stock 'bags for life' at comparatively low prices to encourage our customers to use and reuse them time and time again.
Right from Head Office down to the Store Room we have a strict policy to separate all our paper, plastic and glass waste into individual bins where the resulting materials are then recycled.
